Release

It was okay. Not as good as I was expecting. It's basically two stories in one– the first one pretty emotional/good, the second one pretty weird/out of place. It didn't need to be two stories for me, felt kind of forced and especially the way the two stories connect felt kind of shoehorned-in. If you've never read a Ness book before, don't start with this. If you have and you weren't too impressed, definitely don't read this. But if you loved his other stuff, you might like this. (The writing, as per usual, is nothing but stellar.
